Parking on grass verges or pavements

It is not an offence to park a motor vehicle, with the exemption of a HGV, on a grass verge or pavement unless it is causing an obstruction or there is a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) in place prohibiting it.

If there is an obstruction of the road or pavement this is the responsibility of the police to investigate and enforce.

However residents can request that a TRO be implemented on their own street or road, which can then be enforced by the PES Officer.

To discuss this further please contact the Clerk or view further details at on the Peterborough City Council. https://www.peterborough.gov.uk/residents/parking/parking-on-grass-verges-or-pavements/
